It might be a good idea to take a full backup before moving mailboxes, enable circular logging, move mailboxes, then turn off circular logging and take another backup.

Well; if Move Mailbox is an option, use it. Just make sure that you keep an eye on the transaction log drive disk space, so that it doesn't choke and puke all over your shoes.

I have set up a new Exchange5.5 server to replace an aging 5.5 server. I have been using Exmerge to backup mailboxes to PST files (in addition to the daily backup) before moving mailboxes (just in case). We have a few mailboxes on the old server that are over 2gig in size. Exmerge will not put more than 2gig into the PST files, so I'm a little nervous about moving these biggies without a brick style backup. I will probably end up forcing those users to clean up their inboxes but I was wondering if "Move Mailbox" would have any issues with these big mailboxes?
